Every night, the Pieces of Ate Dinner Theatre puts on a swashbuckling pirate show. Three busboys (played by Larry the Cucumber, Mr. Lunt and Pa Grape) finally get their chance to be the stars when they're sent back in time to face real pirates! Each faces his own personal challenges, including laziness and shyness, as they battle pirate foes, rescue a royal family and try to return to the present day in one piece.
